the whole point of a synth is control of sound.
havin random pahse click artefacts on attack of every note is not good.
in monomode a synth should not click.
i can accept it in polymode....but havin phasey clicks on mono legato notes kills the synth for me.
how can u do nice legato stuff with random clicks poppin up? by lowerin the attack? (u lose aggressivesness in the sound), by increasin the release? (it makes it muddy).


ps: the Pro one ...only analog i have experience with does not click.
good virtual analogs hardware classics (like virus , q etc) do not clik in monomode. (they do in poly)

i only use vsti synths that do not click in mono mode....thank god most of them don't.....but i had to give up a otherwise good synth like xhip cos of this problem.(the workarounds were not practical to me)
